Can any one suggest how to download the report with tiltle of the report with no page break ?

Hi
What happens if you use the export/local file option - does that help at all or can you change the layout? Haven't got access to your release to check.
Cheers

ALV Grid Exporting to Excel - Columns out of order

Hi,
In my ALV grid everything is in order as it is in the structure. When however I export to excel from ALV grid, the columns are out of order. First it lists the string columns, then number columns and lastly date columns. Is there a way to make excel keep the same order as it is in ALV grid?
Thanks,
Sergiy

I am not much of an ABAPer but I was able to set the column position during data declaration with
gs_fcat_line-col_pos = 1, for example.
That would put the column in the first position in ALV as well as the excel export.
Thanks for your inputs.

ALV GRID Export to Excel button Missing

HI All,
I am facing some problem with ALV GRID. When excuting the report with my user id I am able to see the 'Export to Local file' button in the ALV GRID where as if i am excuting with another user id which is having less authorisations than the button is greyed out. I checked by giving all authorisation than we are able to see the button.
Could anyone please tell me which authorisation object we have to assign to see the buttons.
Thanks & Regards,
Murali.

Hi,
Before clicking on the Export to Excel button, start the debugging session by placing the command /H in the command prompt.
Now, put the break point at statement AUTHORITY-CHECK. Now it will trigger all the authorization objects relevant to this.
check the sy-subrc value gets failed.

ALV grid export to Excel

I have created a dynamic table and it displays fine, problem is when I try to export, it is not exporting all the fields. The columns all appear in the field catalog but I might have 24 columns and only 11 want to export. Any one ever had this problem or can give me suggestions on what to do to fix this?

To download specific columns, you can add a new button on output screen 'OUTPUT'. Disable standard Excel download functionality and code for this new button.
If user clicks 'DOWNLOAD', download required columns in the excel file to a user specified location.
You can display a po up to enter which columns user needs to download. You fieldcatalog will have field details. Get this into an internal table. Display a popup with these field names and checkboxes next to it. Whichever columns user need, he will select the same.
Then you can code to get these details into the file.
This is just an idea. You may have to work more after reading this and mapping to your requirement.

Facing problem while downloading ALV grid Output into Excel

Hi Guys,
I am facing problem while downloading ALV grid Output into Excel.
It is downloading into excel, but all character columns first and next all quantity columns it is displaying. But I need columns order as it is in the grid.
If I take all columns as characters it works fine. But it will be problem for calculating total, subtotals of quantity columns
Can someone help me regarding this
thanks for your help

Hi,
Open up Excel on your desktop. Goto Tools > Macro > Security.
Make sure that your security is set to Medium (or less). SAP uses OLE automation to run the Excel instance and in Office 2003 (for example), Microsoft has increased their default security setting to High. With the High setting, the output to Excel fails.
Was this your problem? Don't forget those points, either.
check with this wetther it is solved or not.

XI Won't Export to Excel 2003

We have Crystal Reports XI R1 in our .NET application. We are able to export our reports to Excel version 2002 or earlier but can't export to Excel 2003. Is there a patch or a workaround?

Hi Bobbie. Understood.
I am not aware of any issues specific to Excel 2003. Now, I am aware of issues when WIN 2003 server is updated with SP2. And yes, the latest Crystal Reports Service Pack should resolve that issue.
To deploy the new files to your server, you will need to either create a new deployment project using the CR for .NET msm files, or use the msi. You can not run the SP on computers that only have the CR runtime. The location of the msm and msi files is describe in [this|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsforVisualStudio.NETRuntimeDistribution-Versions9.1to12.0] wiki.
Most likely, in your situation (assuming this is a web app), it will be easiest to run the msi. All you will need is to enter the correct keycode when you are prompted.

OBIEE 11.1.1.7 Exporting to Excel 2003 and 2007 difference

Hi
I have a simple analysis, a couple of measures, some formatted so tat if they are negative show them as Red, minus, 1 decimal and thousand separator. Another measure is not formatted to be Red, just black, minus, 1 decimal and thousand separator.
So ... now to the issue. When I export to Excel 2003 the measures are fine, the numbers are numbers, all fine and dandy.
When I export to Excel 2007+ ... the red minus numbers are now text and impossible to change them all to number. I can only convert to number those that are less than 1000 ... the rest are just impossible.
The other measures, the ones that are black, minus, 1 decimal and thousand separator ... are numbers in Excel 2007+.
Why?
What can I do to solve this?
Kind Regards

Sorry guys ... forgott to say that I'm not the one exporting to Excel ... is my business user and I cannot ask them to save the reports to another format or to cast a column or more?
I will try them both and see what happens ... but this is something that Oracle must fix. It's the year 2013 for godness sake!! This is not a Beta software. In my opinion this is so ridiculous I can hardly find words for it hahahaha
I have tried to cast and convert ... well that doesn't work and I found that some people are using macros to convert text to numbers in Excel ...
Sub txttonum()
For Each tcell In Selection.Cells
If TypeName(tcell.Value) = "String" Then
tcell.Value = Val(tcell.Value)
End If
Next
End Sub
As goes for the CSV option ... I just cannot ask my business user to copy from a CSV file to the Excel file they want to work on, not even if they are advanced Excel users.
Thanks for your suggestions, I really that the cast would work ...
Any other suggestion.

ALV grid - Autoexport to Excel

Hi!
I am creating a report using REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY. On the selection screen I have a check box. When it is checked I want the program to press the Export to Excel button for me so the ALV-grid is exported to Excel automaticly. Is that possible?
Best regards,
Patrick de Sarrazin

Hi Patrick,
do you want to download or display the ALV in Excel?
If you whant to display it in Excel execute your Program,
change in Excel and save the Layout.
If your checkbox is set move your layout to VARIANT.
and call the FM like this.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
       EXPORTING
            I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM       = PROGNAME
          I_CALLBACK_PF_STATUS_SET = 'MAIN'

            I_CALLBACK_TOP_OF_PAGE   = 'TOP_OF_PAGE_GRID'
            <b>IS_VARIANT               = VARIANT</b>
            IS_LAYOUT                = LAYOUT
            IT_FIELDCAT              = FIELDCAT

ALV Grid output to Excel Spreadsheet

I have one that is hopefully easy for you guys and when I search on the forum nothing comes up.
Maybe I am searching wrong.
When you have a program that outputs to an ALV grid, there is a button you can output to a file.
Like an excel document. Icon is a document with an x on it.
First time you run it, it will give you the option of excel, star office, or all available formats.
There is also a button at the bottom that says Always Use Selected Format. User
wants to change this, but once the option is gone, you cannot undo it.
How do I basically deactivate the button to not always use the selected format???
Any suggestions would be terrific.
Thanks for your help.
Steve

Steve,
Try running report SALV_BS_ADMIN_MAINTAIN as indicated in [Note 1080608|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1080608].
I found this Note with the following search string: "Always Use Selected Format ALV Excel". You may also want to consider doing a search on the report name "SALV_BS_ADMIN_MAINTAIN" for further information.
Also check [Note 1157927|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1157927] "Export Excel: Reset export parameter from ALV list."
Best Regards,
Jamie

Using Change Layout Tab on ALV to Export to Excel

Hi Forms!
I have an ALV grid that I export to excel to allow users to manipulate the data exported further.
i do this by clicking change layout -> View -> 'Microsoft Excel' -> click on the template you want to use and click the check mark to export.
My problem is I have a header on the ALV that display's the user selection screen options... all my data shows in excel correctly except that my selection screen header which I would expect in the 'Raw Header' Tab in excel.
If I export to excel using excel export button the header shows up, however this does not help as we like using the pivot table setup from the change layout option.
thank you,
Here is my code for producing the header...
ATA: lo_header TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form_layout_grid,
        lo_h_label TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form_label,

Hello Re_flex....thanks again but I am missing a step here as I was able to hide the column by right-clicking but when I click on the layout there is no layout that I can select. Do you know if these layouts are set in config or not as my layout setting displays 'X' user specific or 'A' ALL but when I select these nothing is displays and when I save I get a message back 'No selection'

ALV grid to protected Excel sheet

Hi ABAP gurus,
I Have developed an ALV report using OO concept and from the application toolbar i am able to change the GRID output to Excel output using View -> Excel inplace. Belows are my requirement now.
1. I need to change the standard template with my template for this particular ALV report or Transaction. PLease provide me with steps details to do it.
2. The Excel sheet should be in protected mode and user should be able to only take print out from the excel sheet without modifying any columns .
If there is no standard way we can add an additional appliaction menu and code it to download the ALV output into an Excel sheet and display it . However again the User should not be able to modify the sheet. please provide me with sample code to do it.
PLease suggest solution for this . Point will be awarded for all valuable answers.
Please it is very urgent for me ...
Thanks in advance.
